Yea it should work without an issue. If you are mainly going by it has Intel stuff inside, I have 2 Intel SSD's in my rig. They run fantastically. They don't require the intel chipset or anything like that to work.
Technically the x86-64 (aka x64) instruction set that AMD uses is based on Intel's x86 design... and although x86-64 was designed by AMD, Intel uses that as well. Just remember that just because one company designed something doesn't mean a competitor won't use it or be able to use it.
Those Microcenter SSD's have Sandforce, not Intel, controllers. They do have Intel/Micron flash memory. They should work fine in either Intel or AMD systems.
Intel does have a better reputation for storage performance in general than AMD. Their ICH chips and RST drivers are great performers from what I've seen.
I do have an AMD system and have heard different accounts of their storage performance. On the one hand, I've heard the AMD SATA driver provides better performance than the Microsoft AHCI driver, but doesn't pass along TRIM commands. On the other hand, I've heard that the AMD SATA driver has been updated to pass along TRIM commands, but the generic Microsoft AHCI driver provides better performance anyway. Perhaps someone can clear this up for me. Maybe it depends on the drive being used?
i have adata ssd s599 64GB , and an AMD rig , when i installed it in my pc an ran some tests it can put disappointing , when i asked the customer support they told me that AMD has poor drivers concerning the AHCI driver
and they told me also it will get better results with intel rig than with amd
so i advice you to buy the ssd but NOT to get your hopes up when installing with your current rig
